The wine was fizzing like sparkling wine upon opening. Aroma: yeasty and closed in the beginning but then opened up to wet stone, buttery popcorn, vanilla, honeysuckle, white flower and tropical fruits. Palate: lemon curd, honey, citrus, creamy, bright acidity with a medium-long finish. Paired with some white cheddar and it mellowed out the acidity greatly. It was also delicious paired with Caldo de Pollo. This is definitely a food pairing white burgundy. 90-91

I truly enjoy PYCM wines, but there was something odd about this particular bottle. It was not flawed, but it was flabby and nondescript. It had no dept or character. It possessed none of those great things that make PYCM wines so special. If I had to describe it in one word, I would say it was "there." Hopefully, my remaining bottles will show better.

Blind tasting of 6 2015 white burgundies. My rank 3rd, group rank 4th Not much showing on the palate, some dilute lemon and a light floral sweet note. Medium energy, medium acidity on the palate, but it comes across as overall hollow in the middle without a lot of dry extract and little cut. Shortish finish. I doubt 2015 will be a long lived vintage for whites, seems reminiscent of 2005.

Another wonderful PYCM wine. For the many Saint Aubins that they produce, this has become my favorite.

La Paulée de New York - The Verticals (Eventi Hotel - New York NY): Walk around tasting, 15/11/09 vertical from magnum. Very ripe and slightly oaky. Gets brighter on finish. OK overall, enjoy young.

The Verticals Tasting at 2020 La Paulée de New York (Eventi Hotel, New York): Magnum. Rich, very oaky, some citrus. None of the cut or minerality I love in Saint-Aubin.

Bouche assez ample mais avec une pointe d’amertume. Un peu de réduction. Les fruits agrumes sont bien présents en bouche. Doit être attendu un peu
